  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Freeman is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Mariners.

    Advice: It looks to be a routine day off for the 25-year-old. Daniel Schneemann will start in center field for the Guardians on Tuesday while Freeman gets some rest. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago

  • Three hits in Monday's loss
    Clement went 3-for-4 in Monday's loss to the Red Sox.

    Advice: Getting the nod at third base and batting eighth, the utility infielder out together his fourth straight multi-hit performance in a starting role. Clement's gone 9-for-13 over that blistering stretch with three doubles, a homer, two RBI and three runs as he takes advantage of Bo Bichette's absence to due to a calf issue. Even when Bichette is cleared to return, Clement's hot streak will likely keep him in the starting lineup for a Blue Jays squad scrambling to find offense wherever it can. Rotowire.com Today, 7:32 am

  • Will be out beyond minimum 10 days
    Baez (spine) is without a precise timeline to return from the injured list, but the Tigers are preparing for him to miss more than the minimum 10 days, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Baez's stint on the IL is retroactive to June 9, making him eligible for activation at any point after Tuesday. However, the Tigers don't seem eager to rush Baez back from lumbar spine inflammation, especially after the shortstop had dealt with back pain for much of last season. Baez visited a doctor in Florida this past weekend and received an injection in his back to alleviate the inflammation, and if the shot took the desired effect, he could be cleared to take the first meaningful step forward in his recovery by resuming baseball activities at some point later this week, per MLB.com. Zach McKinstry and Ryan Kreidler have formed a platoon at shortstop since Baez went on the shelf. Rotowire.com Today, 7:28 am
     
  • Goes yard for first big-league hit
    Jones went 1-for-1 with a solo home run Monday against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Jones was promoted to the majors June 6 and has made just one start since. However, he entered Monday's game as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning and tallied his first big-league hit with a solo home run. Jones will almost certainly remain a bench bat moving forward.

  • Swats 10th homer
    Neto went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-3 win against Milwaukee.

    Advice: Neto provided what turned out to be the winning margin with his two-run shot in the fourth inning. The long ball was his 10th of the season through 260 plate appearances, one more than he hit across 329 plate appearances as a rookie last year. Three of Neto's homers have come over his past six games, and he's produced seven RBI while batting .318 over that span. Rotowire.com Today, 12:18 am
     
  • Collects three hits Monday
    Rojas went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs and an RBI against the Rockies in Monday's 9-5 victory.

    Advice: With Mookie Betts going down with a fractured left hand Sunday and set to miss several weeks, Rojas appears primed for a near-everyday role at shortstop. He did his best Betts impression Monday, notching three hits for the third time this season and scoring twice. Naturally, fantasy managers shouldn't expect Rojas to come anywhere near Betts' level of production, though the former Miami Marlin is having a solid season at the dish with a .292/.339/.460 slash line, three homers, 10 doubles, 15 RBI, 15 runs and three stolen bases through 121 plate appearances.

  • Zach Neto homers to propel Angels past Brewers
    Zach Neto hit a two-run homer Monday to lead the Angels to a 5-3 win over the Brewers.

    Advice: Angels manager Ron Washington has utterly refused to hit Neto in the top half of the order, but the 23-year-old has been one of the team’s best players in batting .249/.297/.440 with 10 homers in 260 plate appearances. He’s not yet a finished product and it’s possible he’ll struggle to reach his true potential while playing for one of MLB’s most dysfunctional franchises, but the sky really is the limit here.

  • Rengifo comes off bench day after wrist injury
    Luis Rengifo came off the bench and struck out as a pinch-hitter Monday against the Brewers.

    Advice: He then remained in to play two innings at third base. Rengifo didn’t start because of a wrist injury suffered Sunday, but it seems like he’ll be fine. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:01 pm

  • Miguel Rojas goes 3-for-5 in Dodgers’ victory
    Miguel Rojas went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored against the Rockies on Monday.

    Advice: Sure, Jazz Chisholm Jr. doesn’t seem to like him, but how badly did the Marlins botch things by trading Rojas for a prospect they didn’t even want a year and a half ago? Rojas is batting .292/.339/.460 in 121 plate appearances this season, and he’ll serve as the Dodgers’ primary shortstop while Mookie Betts is out. Meanwhile, the Marlins continue to roll with Tim Anderson, who might be the very worst player in the league. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:08 pm
